Easy to order

I was glad to find this product on Amazon. You can't buy the tubes at the store, so it's nice to be able to order a large quantity and get free shipping!
Foam & heinekin Light Question
October 27, 2008
I enjoy the Heinekin draft beer, but two problems hope someone can help with. 1. The first third of the keg is very very foamy. I and my Bartender friend have tried drawing many different ways. Nothing works to control Foam. 2. live in MN and cannot get Heinekin Light in Keg. Anybody know why?
More of a Novelty than Anything Else
October 24, 2008
I bought the BeerTender for my hubby because he loves Heineken and I was sick of recycling all the bottles and cans. I wanted to get a different brand of beer dispenser because I read some so-so reviews of the BeerTender plus I wanted one that would handle ANY brand of mini-keg (just in case) and didn't want to buy the tubes necessary for it. However, the other dispensers were pretty much available only in Europe!
Hubby does enjoy the BeerTender, but it foams a LOT and you have to use a new tube each time (I have to buy the tubes online because they aren't sold locally). The 30-day countdown readout (as mentioned in other reviews) doesn't work on ours either. And, you have to take the keg into the liquor store to get your deposit back rather than running it through the recycling machines. Kind of a hassle.
Overall, it's entertaining, looks good on the bar and the tubes work fine, but I'm buying a different one if we ever move to Europe!

Heinekin BT10001 BeerTender Tubes, for using with the BeerTender, are fine. I have no problem with them at all.
Heineken BeerTender Disposable Taps

If you love beer as much as I do, then you won't be disappointed in the new Heineken Mini Draft Machine for the home bar. I really think that Heineken hit a home run with this machine. I would prefer that they create a beer tube that was "washable and reusable", but the cost is no issue here and the ease of use makes it a mute point.
